The lead pastor of a mega-church returned to the pulpit Sunday to rapturous applause just three months after he was suspended from the role after exchanging DMs with a woman who was not his wife. Matt Chandler, 48, made his triumphant homecoming to the Village Church, a Southern Baptist congregation located just outside of Dallas, and told his congregation: 'I'm sorry, I failed you,' adding that he felt as if he had 'fallen short of the glory of God.' In August, Chandler said he was after church leaders found his conversations with another married woman to be 'unguarded' but not "sexual."' Chandler has three children with his wife, Lauren. She is a deacon at the church.
